The summer has arrived and with it sadly comes the end of our Pyranha sponsorship.Â The club was awarded Pyranha sponsorship at the 2011 National Student Rodeo and it’s safe to say that without the boats that the club received from Pyranha we would be in a very different position right now. With the help …

It’s hard to believe I just spent the last two days in Quebec during the some lowest water conditions imaginable, and still got to paddle two amazing rivers. Â I suppose when you go to the region that is home to a third of the world’s fresh water you can always expect to have something to …

When I heard that Pyranha was putting out a new creeker, I didnâ€™t pay much attention because Iâ€™ve been so happy with my Burn, and I wasnâ€™t looking to change boats.Â Then when I saw the Shiva, I was intrigued.Â My first thought was that it resembled an old Pyranha favorite of mine, the Creek …

Last week I competed with Pyranha Master in extreme tema relay (Czech championship). Our womenÂ´s team Technika Extreme Ladies was on 2.place. The competition was composed from running (Tana Metelkova), paragliding (Eva MarkovÃ¡), biking (Pavlina Cerna) and kayaking (me). This competition is the biggest competition in extreme relay in Czech republic. It was in czech …

During the week we paddled most of the classics in the area including the Guill (in on go) and the durance gorge Anton also found a slightly more …

The boys loaded up and set off for the unknown,Â traveling up north to find waterfalls and waves on the way to Wilderness Voyageur’s Beer and Gear festival. Along the way we managed to find a nice little park and huck on the Tygart in WV, paddle at the ASCI whitewater park at WISP in MD …

This post comes with great sadness in writing but I feel as though when an event happens that changes so many lives, it needs to be discussed. The paddling community is one that is small and with the sport, comes a time for horrible news. Saturday was a day I didnâ€™t think twice about, as …

Teva Outdoor Games â€“ Valchiusella Week before last my self, Tom Wakling, Joe Morley and Jen Chrimes headed out to Northen Italy for the 2012 Teva Kayak Race. We went out a week in advance to train on the course and of course paddle some other rivers. On arrival we met up with the Pyranha …

This spring I got to surf a few really good waves in West Virginia, and even better I got to surf them in the new JED. Â I still can not say enough about this boat, it’s fast, loose, and goes really big. Â Enjoy the video and stay tuned for another sick wave video from Skook, …

So demshitz has been wondering around the Colorado scene in the recent few weeks. From Paddlefest to a quick Durango creek mission (the vid from this is below), straight to Teva Mountain Games in Vail, to a few dealer visits and demo’s, to the Lyons outdoor Games and now we are back in Buena Vista …
